Blue & Yellow SD-9 (ex- SP) is off now defunct Colorado, Kansas & Pacific which had ex-MoPac Towner line (now CDOT again) and ran Trinidad RR under Contract as Colorado Central RR(old Colorado & Wyoming RR Southern Division....Yard at Jansen still exists up to MP 2.0) until A&K tore it up last year under shaky circumstances.
Mudchicken Nothing is worth taking the risk of losing a life over. Come home tonight in the same condition that you left home this morning in. Safety begins with ME.... cinscocom-west
